The Galleries in the Minnesota state
House Come Near Breaking Down.
A sensation was created in the hall
of the Minnesota House OF Represent
atives on the afternoon OF the 9th
inst. The special order was the final
passage of the high license bill, and the
gallery and the hall were packed with
spectators. The capitol, while almost

unsafe for some months, and consid-
cradle plastering has fallen recently.
Shortly after the session began the
attention OF Chairman Donnelly was
called to the fact that the cell
ing cross beams appeared to be set
tling, and one member declared that
the gallery had settled four inches A
motion was hurriedly carried that
spectators beexcluded, whereupon the
gallery and aisles were cleared. 1t is
the opinion OF many that frightful
disaster was narrowly averted by the
prompt action OF Chairman Donnelly
subsequently resolution was passed
for an lmmediate examination OF the
building by experts. The building
was erected In 1880. 1t was examined
and repaired last winter. 1t is said

Queer Facts About Ants.


In spite of the multifariou5 duties
tiny burghers, they still find time to
clean and adorn their worthy little per-
sons. No spot, no atom OF dust or
anything else uncleanly will they tol-
crate on their bodies. They get rid OF
the dirt with the bushy tufts on their
feet, or with their tongues. They act
for all the world like domestic cats
whenever they clean and lick them.
selves, and they assist one another at
the toilet precisely like monkeys.
Their sense OF cleanliness goes so far
that the naturalist often finds, to his
unpleasant surprise, the colored
marks that he had applied with SO
much care on his ''trial ants" removed
by their dirt-hating friends. They
keep their dwellings Just as cleanly.
But the conveying away OF their de-
ceased brethren, whose bodies they
appear to regard with thegreatest an
tipathy, gives them more trouble
than anything else. When some mem
beTs OF an ant community which Mr..
Cook kept in prison died and could
not be removed, those remaining
seemed affected with the greatest hor.
ror. For days the insects ran about
seeking way out, and ceased only
when completely exhausted. The
ants belonging to the camponorus
species seized thedead and threw them
into the water pail, which they con.
verted into q sepulchre. Ordinarily,
though, the ants are said to treat
their dead with morereverence. They
even possess their own graveyards,
which lie in the vicinity of their nest

Labor Notes.

The executive board of District AS
sembly 40, Knights of Labor, on the
11th, issued an order declaring the
great New York strike at an end.
Two hundred and fifty surface men
at the Champion Mine, at Ishpeming,
are working again, but 800 miners are
still out, and are determined to stay
out until their demands are acceded
to. John and Edward Sampson, for
whose removal the men struck, have
left the mine and are now out OF the
county. Agent kidder is determined
not to give in and will maintain his
position. 1t is probable that the men
will give in within q week or two. No
trouble is now anticipated.
John Jarrett, chief OF the Amalga-
mated Iron and Steel Workers Asso-
citation, visited Chicago, on the 9th, at
the solicitation of District Assembly
No. 29, and conferred with the officials
OF the North Chicago Rolling Mills.
1t seems there was some difficulty be-
tween the employees and the company.
The men demanded an increase OF pay,
and MIR. Jarrett was requested to
come to Chicago to settle the matter.
"The company has granted the de-
mand OF the men," Mr.. Jarrett said.
"Their wages. will be increased about
10 to Is per cent, and there is moth
ing left to be settled"
A New York dispatch OF the Sth
says: "There are strong indications
that the 'longshoremen's strike will
come to an end in twenty four hours
by the strikers returning to work
where they may. The boss stevedores
say they can get ali the help they
want. The union boatmen who
struck because they could not handle
"scab" coal, although they were satis-
fed with the price paid them-25 cents
ton-are also weakening at the
piers to-day freightwas handled whit
out much difficulty"
The striking miners at Blantyre,
Scotland, engaged in q riot on th9
Stl, which the sheriffs and police could
not control. The troops had to sup.
press it. Tne men broke into the
Stoneield police station and rescued
the prisoners confined there and after
ward looted g. dozen shops, carrying
away quantities OF whisky and flour.
There wers numerous casualties. Ten
constables were seriously injured.
The officials OF the Reading Railroad
had a conference with 81 committee of
workmen at Philadelphia on the 9Th.
A satisfactory agreement was reached
aud there Will be no strike on that
road.
The lccked-out clothing cutters of
Philadelphia at meeting on the 8th
decided to order out the foremen of
the different shops where lockout has
been ordered.

p.4RSEiL ON DEEh,

He Offers His Amendment to the Ad-
dress.
In the House of Commons, on the
7th, Mr.. Parnell moved his amend
ment to the address il reply to the
Queen 3 speech. The amendment is as
follows: THE relations between own
ers and occupiers OF the land in Ire
land have not been seriously disturbed
IN the cases of those who granted their
tenants such attachments as were de.
manded by the prices OF agricultural
and pastoral produce. The remedy
for the crisis in Irish agarian affairs
will be found not in an increased
stringency OF the criminal procedure
or in the pursuit OF such novel, doubt
ful and unconstitutional measures as
those recently taken by her majesty's
government, but in such reform OF the
law and system OF government as will
satisfy the needs and secure the con-
fidence Of the Irish people"

EHgTS FIRE AND Lava,

Aivices from Honolulu report that
the volcano MauneIoa on Hawaii

FieIdIng's Tomb at Lisbon.

Fielding's tomb at Lisbon is de-
scribed by resident OF that city as
sarcophsgus surmounted by an ORR,
resting on a stone block, which stands
on rectangular base fourteen feet by
eleven. The south face of the tomb
bears the words: "Luget Britannia
gremio non pari fovere natum"
Britain mourns that her son is not
given her to cherish in her bosoml.
The marble or this side is white and
the inscription perfectly distinct. The
long Latin inscription on the north
face is wholly legible though some
what weather-stained. The solid ma
sorry is as sound as when the nlonu-
ment was FIRST put up. The tomb,
which is sheltered and not concealed
by two fine cypress trees, isto be pho
tographed. and the pictures will be
sent to England in proof that the
great novelist's monument has sui
